Postcards For Abby sign with AAA & join the Hot Lies!

Brisbane band four-piece, Postcards For Abby, have been confirmed to support The Hot Lies on their Brisbane leg of their recently announced national tour in September.
Postcards For Abby will support The Hot Lies on their 18+ show at Club 299 on September 28 2007.
This news comes hot after the recent signing to AAA Entertainment’s record label, which will see the band release their debut EP in October.
Musically, Postcards For Abby have been likened to bands such as Incubus and Bloc Party. “We get people saying we sound like Incubus a lot… which is great because they’re such a big influence on our music”, says guitarist, Alex (Russo). “It’s quite flattering because they’re our favourite band”, adds Mike. “Energetic, atmospheric, melodic, rock, something you don’t hear in Australian bands”, describes Woody of the band’s unique alternative rock sound.
The band’s live show is just as equally unique as is their musical prowess. “Fans can expect to ‘want to get naked’,” jokes Mike. “Fans will get a performance, not just a gig,” adds Woody with fasterlouder.com.au describing it as “live, powerful energy and tight”. And on the live circuit, Postcards For Abby are already starting to build a name for themselves after already supporting artists including The Hot Lies, Avalon Drive, Dead Letter Circus and Stealing O’Neal.
Now with their debut self-titled EP release set for national release on October 6 2007, the band are “piss my panties” excited to finally be “getting something out there that you’ve put a lot of time and effort into,” says Alex (Russo).
“It’s different as well but generic enough so grandmas will tap their walking stick and say "f*ck ABBA, I want PFA!"
